Bandages

Yeah, this one is a little crazy! There is a lot going on here. The people I’ve shown it to so far have had mixed reviews, it might be a love it or hate it painting!

The thing I like best is the varied mediums here. It started as a simple acrylic painting, but I never felt it was finished. Then, I was introduced to weaving paintings as I mentioned in an earlier post, and now, I am in a mixed media craze!

The name is very apt. It sums up all the bandages I’ve had from my wild youth to more recent heath crises’. It’s like looking at a thousand faces under a black dripping Frankenstein crown, with a purple wash, like stylish hair, sweeping down framing eyes squinched over roughly pursed red lips. To have lived it is to love it.
